I have grown past a certain level of trust. ₦20,000 is not enough to soil my name.

Hatred is a horrible thing, that you would pay hard earned cash to see me go down is quite unfortunate.

It's still January keep waiting an opportunity will come before December.

Fentanyl:


you sabi read so?

how does a couple of cars the op said mean "5 cars at least", or are you also a mind reader?

you also did not see where op said none of the cars had the specs op wanted even though op told him the specs?

which kin logistics

WuTangClan:
I will refrain from mentioning any names, I just want perspectives on this matter.


Sometime towards the end of 2019, I contacted a known dealer here on Nairaland when I wanted to get a car to replace the car I was using at the time.

I admit I did not take necessary precautions such as a concrete agreement, mainly because I felt the dealer was honorable and would not try anything shady.

When I contacted him on Whatsapp, he told me I would have to pay him some money to find the car I wanted. He requested I pay 50,000 Naira for him to search for the car, I had a contact transfer 20,000 Naira to him to find the car, I also sent him the specs I desired.

Over the course of the next month or so, I constantly asked for updates and he kept telling me it would take some time to find all the specs I wanted, which made sense to me, he also sent pictures of a couple of cars which had none or few of all the specs I told him I wanted.

Along the line he mentioned one may have to import the car because it may not be found locally, but he then said he was still searching locally. I eventually decided to explore other options while waiting for him to deliver what he was paid for, because I was running out of time and I did not want to put all my eggs in one basket.

I contacted another trusted agent here, and through the agent we were able to find a suitable car, import and clear it. The car eventually landed towards the end of November 2019.

Through all this, the dealer I sent the 20,000 never updated me at all, not even to say he was still searching for the car or anything.

I ultimately took delivery of my car from the trusted agent sometime in December but had to travel for work almost immediately, and was very busy over the holidays.

A few days ago when the holiday workload finally lessened, I contacted the dealer who had not said anything to me for months, and I asked him about the status of the money I sent to him, his response was that the money could not be refunded and that the only thing that he was prepared to do was to find the car, the same car he claimed to have been searching for but had not found for months and he never even bothered to update me.

He also said he was surprised I contacted him again, by that I guess he hoped or thought I had forgotten all about the 20,000. He also said that he was aware I contacted somebody else to import the car even though he told me that he also runs an importation service, and that at the end of the day he was still involved in repairing the car the agent imported for me.

My response to all this was that it did not and does not concern him if I contacted anybody else, and that I paid him money to perform a service.

He further insisted that he would not refund any money to me.

My question now is, is the dealer right?

Do I forfeit the money I sent him just because we did not have a concrete agreement initially?

He knows I already have the car I wanted, so by telling me he can only search for a car, he is implying i have to forget about the 20,000 I sent to him.

What if I had sent 50,000 as he requested, what would be my situation now?

If someone paid for a service and the person he paid did not fulfil the service, should the client forfeit the money?

Have I been a victim of a scam, or is the dealer right?

You were not scammed, you are even owing the dealer 30k because he did your job and even when you decided to sideline him, he still helped in the the whole process.

fabienjoe:
...but even the story itself without hearing from the dealer shows no overt fraud. You paid a fee for a service and was dissatisfied with what you got. What means of redress did you seek from the service provider before making alternative arrangement? Obviously none. The service was already in process seeing as he sent you some pictures of cars so it is fair to assume he had already started the job. Where is the scam in this? Refunding your part payment is out of it. The only resolution if you're dissatisfied is to meet him for variation of the contract since it didn't go to plan. He would present the bill for the effort he put in and two of you would determine whether he needs to refund you, or you need to top up the N20,000. I'm sure you won't ask a lawyer to fully refund legal fees already paid if you decide to discontinue a case midway...or ask a school to refund your school fees because you're withdrawing from your programme midway...or perhaps ask a doctor to refund
professional fees he had already received because you don't want to continue the treatment in his hospital....

buygala:


This is pure unadulterated witchcraft

You haven't confirmed the person you mentioned is the one... I hope you realize you are not as anonymous as you think, so you can sued by the person you mentioned for Libel, with damages against you running into the millions of naira, if not into tens of millions...

And the honest truth is that if Gazzuzz can confirm your identity and location, as all as that he wasn't involved in this deal, I will take up the case for free, just to make an example of people like you... Me and him go share the money after I have squeezed you and your generation's total worth out of you.... If I get a couple of millions while fixing a stupid person, Both God and my bank akant will be well pleased

Even if you have, you haven't heard the said dealer's side of the story in order to give a balanced opinion..

Blind Hate is a bad thing Bro... Purge thyself of it..

For all those who just formed an opinion without hearing the other side of the story, you guys really need to calm down.... Talking too fast isn't wisdom anywhere


May we not be judged in one sided opinion

Failed lawyer

Readonee35L:
Based On the Statement *Customer is always right*
Some customers will almost ruin your life with their Bad Understanding / Evil mind.

The op knows what he is doing because the money paid wasn't even for the vehicle. The man did his job and if one is to be honest you owe him his balance .


If you defend the Person they paid the 20k, you'd be labelled as a thief. If you defend the op you'd be labelled as being unjust .
But either way, who expects a refund for a service as this which has already been executed . no one collects a refund from a lawyer even if the case is lost. It's left for you to do your home work before paying for their services .



May we not be called out in public because of 20k.

these days the best approach to using this forum is to check the poster before you read the post

so bros, you have spoken well, what you have said is as predictable as the sun rising and setting everyday

afterall you sell cars and you have most likely done the exact same thing done to the op, to people before, in fact I remember seeing one thread I can't recall now where you did something similarly crooked with one car you were selling

so please remove the cloak of "unbiased" from your post, and kindly join your side, they are all waiting for you

well done
